Very interesting documentary about former prisoner and Holocaust Survivor 'Kitty Hart' who in 1980, revisits Auschwitz 40 Years Later.

Interesting to note how untidy, derelict and under-developed the camp was before the fall of Communism in 1989. After 1989, much of the of the camp was restored, and the tidy, well presented site we see today, stands as a permanent memorial to the victims.
